    48 minutes that will go down among the very best of this year.

    Because you’re ready for The Things We Think We’re Missing. It’s yet another one of those albums you didn’t know how badly you needed.

    Their colorful tapestry of indie/alt/emo inspiration is distilled far more subtly then before. [Oct 2013, p.84]

    This is what those album reviewers mean, when they talk about setting the bar high.

    B&C aren’t at that level [Foo Fighters, Deftones, Brand New or Thursday], but considering the leap they’ve made from their pedestrian debut Separation, The Things We Think We’re Missing serves notice that we shouldn't be surprised if they get there.

    It's bitingly honest, thoroughly self-reflective and often, uncomfortably relatable. One of the best albums of the year.
